A combination of high-tech equipment and in-house expertise enables us to produce a range of pgm sheets, including ultra-thin foils and ribbons. If required, these materials can be processed further into more complex geometries using our high precision tooling. We are also able to provide rhodium foils of exceptional quality and reliability for use in digital mammography scanners. It’s just one of the ways that our products flow from our labs into applications that enhance everyday life.

We also offer a range of additional services, such as closed-loop pgm recycling and metal management options.
